Nartan ( Russian Нартан ; Kabardian Нартанэ ) is a village (selo) in the Republic of Kabardino-Balkaria in Russia with 12,813 inhabitants (14 October 2010).
geography
The place is located on the northern edge of the Greater Caucasus , about 8 km as the crow flies east-northeast of the center of the republic capital Nalchik , in fact directly adjacent to it. Nartan extends on the right bank of the Nalchik River, which flows over the Urwan to the right Baksan tributary Cherek .
Nartan belongs to the Tschegemsky Rajon and is located a good 10 km southeast of its administrative center Tschegem . The village is the seat of the rural community (selskoje posselenije) Nartan, which also includes the village of Doroschny rasjesd Nartan not far to the northeast.
history
The year the village was founded is unknown. During the Caucasus War from 1817 to 1864 , the Kabardian auditorium with the Russified name Klischbijewo - the most important - as well as Agsagowo, Atlaskirowo, Chaudowo and Gukeschewo existed on its present territory . In 1865 the villages were united under the name Klischbijewo . After the October Revolution , this was abolished in 1920, as in many other Kabardian places, as a derivation from the name of a noble family (most recently Soslanbek Klischbijew, 1910–1917 head of the Okrug Nalchik) and the new name was given to Nartan , in Kabardian for example for mother of the warrior ( nart ).
From 1924 to 1944 the village belonged to the Nalschikski rajon, from 1944 to 1962 and again from 1964 to the Tschegemski rajon, in between briefly, from 1962 to 1964 to the Urwanski rajon . The population of the village as a suburb of the city of Nalchik grew increasingly from the 1970s.
